SSL error when loading fastText models

o-P-o commented 6 years ago

Python 3.6.4, MacOS.

Following the README instructions, I download the fastText vectors and then do

mkdir dataset/fastText
curl -Lo dataset/fastText/crawl-300d-2M.vec.zip https://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/fasttext-vectors/crawl-300d-2M.vec.zip

This works fine for about 1hr, and then with 36 minutes remaining I get the following error:

What is happening here and how can I solve the problem? Thanks.

I didn't have this issue a few months ago when using the GloVe vectors in V1.

Hi, I am not sure what happened there. Did you simply try to download it again? Thanks Alexis

I noticed yesterday that I also had this problem with loading sklearn datasets.

Apparently this is an issue for Mac users using Python 3.6 after deprecated Apple-supplied OpenSSL libraries. This worked for me, and has worked for others with a similar problem when loading sklearn datasets:

$ sudo /Applications/Python\ 3.6/Install\ Certificates.command
